    Finding Nemo

    I liked Nemo, too!! Only, I thought the seagulls were saying "Mike, mike, mike, mike" :o Especially since that was the pelican's name.

    "The Music of Creation" by John Michael Talbot

    I know you're not a big JMT fan, Wols. I didn't figure you'd bite on this one, LOL!! The Pathways albums are very nice, however, I really enjoy the ones we have. :)

    "The Music of Creation" by John Michael Talbot

    Anyone read it? I picked it up at the library, and it's very interesting. I think I like it, but I need to let it sink in some more. There are many nuggets of truth in it.

    Prayers for my nephew and his fiancee

    It's a good thing!! We found out that she is a Catholic (but her dad and her stopped going to church for some reason - she doesn't know why). Anyway, my nephew is full of the typical Protestant misconceptions about Catholicism. So, we have invited them up to our home for a weekend, and we are...

    Would you tell your priest he had a hole in his pants?

    The frustration is there for us (particularly him), but it runs even deeper than that. It's an all-out rejection of him and his abilities by the lay leadership of the parishes. Most of the pastors, except a few of the ones he was in seminary with & the more liberal ones, love having him in the...

    Would you tell your priest he had a hole in his pants?

    Met - I am in the position of being the wife of a former seminarian. My DH has a call to serve his church, and in our diocese, there is absolutely no way that he can. He can't become a deacon, because the requirements for married deacon are idiotic in our diocese (permanent diaconate was just...

    Need Prayers

    (((praying))) I definitely second chanter's vitamin recommendation!! Those are in addition to a multivitamin, if you are taking one. :) I recommend Solaray, Solgar, or one of those brands you can find at a health food store.

    Would you tell your priest he had a hole in his pants?

    I do believe that we should have married clergy - but only if they were married before accepting orders. :) I think it might help with the lack of vocations we seem to be having...

    Contemperary Music

    I'm all for balance too!! While I love the youth mass, I do wish that there'd be a mass that featured Palestrina settings, too! Of course, then I'd probably never go to another youth mass.... :P

    Help cure my Catholic ignorance!

    New Creation - I'm sorry that your heart got heavy when your friend mentioned that you were interested in Catholicism just to study it. I have a feeling you probably won't think that way, once you've studied it more!! ;) The Holy Spirit has a way of leading people to the Catholic Church that...

    Contemperary Music

    Our parish's 5:30 p.m. mass is the youth mass. We normally sing contemporary songs. Some of them are from Steubenville, and some are not - but they're all great!! :) Hopefully you find what you're looking for at Xavier! :)

    Raphael's Homeschooling Dream

    While I am a convert to Catholicism, I have been a Christian since I can remember. The above quote is very true for me, however. I think I would've fared much better had I been homeschooled (or gone to a private school). The destruction that happened to my self was very very extensive. I am...

    Raphael's Homeschooling Dream

    We are homeschooling the kids. Thomas is starting home preschool this fall. We are doing an eclectic approach, but mainly unschooling with a strong Montessori and Waldorf leaning. I recently checked out a few books at our library. One is specifically for Catholic Homeschoolers, called "A...
